Before we have any decision , we should have a map of what will be
retired , since one of the package is wxGTK3, we have wxGTK3-devel and
and wx3-GTK2-devel (which looks that still works better) and a bunch of
package depend on it , so 9 months could not be much .
Remove just gstreamer-0.10 and not all webkitgtk  and webkitgtk3 it
will IMO a bad plan , we have some good software that is still based on
it , some of them are in RPMFusion .
